Will the upcoming Obama tax raise on cigarettes April 1 of .62 per pack (bringing it to around $5 per pack in Indiana) disproportionately hit low-income workers ?
Keep in mind by getting these smokers to quit by taxxing them more, you are taking nearly 8 billion from federal tax and 13 billion from state. Where are they going to get the money from next? Us, so just enjoy it while you can.
are you saying that rich people should have to pay more cigarette tax because they make more money and there for should do more for the country and then it would be a fair tax? I agree with that
Yes- tax is high enough already. Why are they putting it up even more? The government like taking everyone's hard earned cash don't they.
LMAO! Amblessed, did you notice that this supposed Obama $5 tax is scheduled to take effect April 1st?
Thanks for the laugh.
Call me cynical but I don't believe it's because they want people to stop smoking they just want all the tax.
People of all classes smoke.
I don't understand your point, Amblessed.
It's fine with me. Maybe people will stop smoking.
Nice catch !! :-)
